TerraPrime Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 this story on the Scott Walker John Doe investigation is terrifying http://www.nationalreview.com/article/417155/wisconsins-shame-i-thought-it-was-home-invasion-david-french this is systemic, from Tom Delay to Ted Stevens I'm sure being at the receiving end of armed men barging in and ordering you around is a traumatic experience. I will not discredit or downplay that. But that piece is a political hack piece, rife with gems of citing un-named sources to say that Chisolm is on a personal agenda on account of his wife being "distraught" over Act10. The time line being presented was also suspicious. I don't have time to dig around it but Walker was already under investigation for misappropriation of county personnel time for campaign purposes earlier, iirc, and the investigation then led to the embezlement charge. At any rate, this piece is not really about the victims or about the use of excessive force during execution of warrants. They're just kindles for the martyring fire that is Walker's presidental ambition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other news, water is kind of wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzydaBear Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I really can't believe those evil Republicans. They are running a candidate who opposed gay marriage, voted for the Iraq war, is part of the 1%, and covered up sexual harassment of women. Oh wait...

They are running a candidate who opposed gay marriage, voted for the Iraq war, is part of the 1%, and covered up sexual harassment of women. Oh wait...Shockingly, you'll find that a good chunk of people here are actually really not in favor of Hillary. I don't know why you can't wrap your mind around the idea that Hillary is remarkably goddamn centrist and there isn't an actual left-wing party in the US, and that a ton of people only vote for the centrist because the alternative is worse. But since the republicans are also running everything you cite and are promising to double-down on everything, its a pretty easy choice. Voting for Hillary is voting for a somewhat palatable replacement for RBG when she retires, IMO, and that's worthwhile. The rest of her better-than-republicans-on-most-topics stances are just icing. Either that, or you can't get your head around anything more complex than "you don't like a thing I like!" Therefore you like a thing I don't like!" as if those were the only options. vvvv I assume he's talking about Monica Lewinsky re: covering up sexual harassment.

They are running a candidate who opposed gay marriage, voted for the Iraq war, is part of the 1%, and covered up sexual harassment of women. Oh wait... Opposed, past tense. Jeb is still "evolving" his stance on this, as I recall reading last. He won't finish his "evolution" until past the first few primaries in red states, if at all. Rubio is also hemming and hawing. It's a bit funny that supporters of GOP want to beat a Democratic nominee over the head on gay marriage issues. You guys have no room to stand on this issue, because in your last national convention your party still approved planks to affirm marriage as a privilege exclusive to different-sex couples, and your current slate of contenders are going to include some REALLY fucking anti-gay ones on there, for sure. Yes, Clinton did "vote for" the Iraq war, and she had paid for that 8 years ago. I think she may have to pay for that again, this time, too. But at the Senate level, the 41% of them voted NO, while 2% of GOP did so. So... yeah. I'm not sure what you're referring to in terms of "covering up sexual harassment."

Along the same lines, you'd think that someone who was capable of staging three-gunmen targeted assassinations at Starbucks, sabotaging military aircraft to kill people that had escorted you around some dangerous area that one time, staging dozens of fake suicides, including arranging the fake suicide of, of all people, Sandy Hume, the son of noted Clinton supporter and Fox News employee Britt Hume - would have a lot fewer enemies willing to speak out publicly against them, especially at, you know, Fox News.
